Wrestling Thread 6: It's Poppy • Page 612

I was trying to imagine what Ive missed by not following RAW regularly since before MITB, so I quick clicked through the PPV results since then...RAW hasnt had a single story that stands out. SD's definitely done some stuff thats worked (Sasha/Bayley, Roman, etc). You could skip the last 6 months of RAW and probably figure out the stories in 2 mins

 

Of course as I say that, AJ does this:

 

The last 5-10 mins of the Ricochet/AJ match did rule, and that styles clash spot was sick. But again, it’s something cool we all can enjoy after the fact and there was no consequence of missing it live because it didn’t tell us anything new or give us a story to invest in. It was about the 50th time in the last year where they do the thing where someone hypes Ricochet up before a match about how much potential he has, only for him to go out there and lose

 

Sooooo why are the Hurt Business suddenly infighting?

 

So they are just running back the fiend gimmick with Alexa?

 

Why am I watching raw? I totally forgot Asuka was the women’s champ. When was the last time she defended? Against Zelina? And why have her and Charlotte be tag champs when they are both involved in completely different storylines.

 

Lashley stomping Riddles foot was so bad too

 

Funny, I was gonna say they were the one legit thing RAW created...so breaking them up would make sense in RAW's backwards ass way

 

A 50 First Dates reference in 2021

 

The guy playing Drew sounds like Liam Neeson

 

Not gonna lie I chuckled at Gillberg coming out

 

Didn't Gillberg have to retire due to cancer or something? Good to see he is still up for the gimmick.

 

I'm not a fan of Ethan Page and I have no idea what the hell any of this is.

 

Mortal enemies like Curryman and Christopher Daniels

 

I get Alexa has a supernatural gimmick, but Asuka should have been able to counter Sister Abigail. She held her there for like a solid 30 seconds haha

 

Hoping Ricky shows up at Fight Forever.

 

This bugged me so much, too. Asuka was the one on offense up to that point, too.

 

Made absolutely no sense lol

 

Fuck off

 

Did they start doing all of the tapings already? Kinda curious where everything is going.

 

Holy shit @ matt hardy coming back to impact

 

I was going to say kinda funny right? Had that big spat with Jeff Jarrett and Impact and then Jarrett comes to WWE while Matt was there. Then Matt leaves and goes to AEW and now they are working with Impact

 

Gonna miss indie Elayna and Priscilla
